Chapter 415: Chapter 415: One Person, One Chance

At this moment, Huo Yandong was watching Gu Hangshen with a smirk that wasn’t quite a smile.

"Young man, not bad! Who would have thought you could push me to this point? It’s just a pity that everything you can think of... I can guess too! Did you think it would be over just by dealing with Qin Yao?"

Gu Hangshen stood quietly, his eyes sweeping around without betraying any emotion, but he didn’t see Xiao Nian. Just as he was filled with surprise and uncertainty, he saw Huo Yandong’s gaze fall on Xiaoqiao, "The only thing I didn’t predict was this girl..."

"Who would have thought someone could hide the person I want right under my nose!" Huo Yandong’s tone was tinged with a hint of admiration.

Here was the man who kidnapped her, her very own biological father, and the Xiao Nian she had desperately tried to save was his grandson...

Now her ex-husband intended to kill her biological father, and the biological father was threatening him with his own daughter and grandson...

Considering these realities, which were so repellent yet unchangeable, Xiaoqiao found it all too ironic and ridiculous!

Could there be anything more absurdly tragic in the world?

Hearing Huo Yandong’s words, Gu Hangshen looked at Xiaoqiao, somewhat shocked, his mind racing. However, he quickly composed himself, "What do you want?"

Blaine spoke on behalf of Huo Yandong, "First, order your dogs to completely withdraw from Z City!"

Gu Hangshen looked at Huo Yandong, then after a long moment made a phone call and directed Lian Yi to lead people to retreat.

"Can we release the hostage now?"

Huo Yandong laughed softly, with the air of someone toying with a dying prey, "Young man, don’t be so tense. How about we play a game? If you win, I’ll let one of them go. If you lose, you forfeit a hand!"

No sooner had Huo Yandong finished speaking than Gu Xiaorou immediately looked at Gu Hangshen with intense anxiety. As for Xiaoqiao, apart from a moment’s confusion, she showed no further reaction.

At this time, what both women cared about most was whom Gu Hangshen would choose, but Xiaoqiao knew all too well that Gu Hangshen’s choice would surely be Gu Xiaorou.

Xiaoqiao didn’t understand: one is a woman who has been abandoned, the other is the beloved sister of a benefactor’s daughter; isn’t the choice obvious?

If Gu Hangshen won and released Gu Xiaorou, then all that would be left was herself, of no use to anyone. What would Huo Yandong do then to continue his fight with Gu Hangshen without any leverage?

Such an obvious outcome, could Huo Yandong really be ignorant of it?

Xiaoqiao couldn’t figure out whether Huo Yandong was certain that Gu Hangshen would surely lose, or if he never intended to honor the agreement in the first place?

One of the men walked over and pushed the pistol and bullets on the table towards Gu Hangshen.

Huo Yandong continued to explain the rules, "This pistol has six chambers, and only one bullet will be loaded. You aim at your left hand, one turn per person, how about it?"

It was rumored that Huo Yandong especially liked these twisted games, tormenting others in such ways, and he never lost.

If he dared to suggest it, it indicated that he had the confidence to win!

Knowing this, however, there was no room for refusal at the moment.

"Shouldn’t I be the one to load the bullet?"

Gu Hangshen stopped Blaine’s hand, who knew if the gun had been tampered with.

Blaine glanced at Huo Yandong, and Huo Yandong nodded in agreement, as if to show fairness, he had no objection to letting him load it himself.

Gu Hangshen took the pistol, loaded the bullet, then placed his left hand on the table, aimed the barrel at the back of his hand, and pulled the trigger.

"Brother, don’t..." Gu Xiaorou trembled with fear, unable to look any longer.
